About this book

(From Back Cover) Here is the tender story of Nicholis Penryn, who lived as an embittered recluse in a remote part of Cornwall. Badly scared, he could not believe that any woman could be other than repulsed by him- until his strange marriage to a young girl whose gentle ways at last touched even his unhappy heart.
